UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Daylong festival to promote organic farming
By Paul Todd Special to the Kansan
Chef Jim Gasser says his meals taste better when he uses organically grown food.
Jim Gasser, a chef at American Bistro Restaurant, 101 W. Seventh St., prepares Johnny Walker Prailine Sauce. Gasser will be participating Saturday in "From the Good Earth," an event promoting organic farming.
"The organic produce makes cooking easier," said Gasser, who is head chef at American Bistro, 101 W. Seventh St. "You don't have to make up for a lack of flavors in cooking."
Saturday, Gasser and seven other area chefs will be cooking organic dishes at the Farmers' Market, 11th and Vermont streets, as part of a daylong festival celebrating organic farming and sustainable agriculture. The event will be called "From the Good Earth."
Other chefs from Lawrence who will be participating are Mark Ramirez of Fifi's Restaurant, 925 Iowa St., Charlie Rascoll of Free State Brewery, 636 Massachusetts St.; and LeAnn Ward of Paradise Cafe, 728 Massachusetts St. Other chefs and food experts who will participate include Debbie Gold and Michael Smith of the American Restaurant in Kansas City, Mo., and Robert Krause of Gourmet To Go in Topека Alice Waters, an award-winning chef from Berkeley, Calif., also will cook. Waters was named James Beard Chef of the Year in 1992 and is an advocate for family farming.
The chefs will cook organic dishes at the Farmers' Market from 9 to 11 a.m. Tickets are $6.
"From the Good Earth" is sponsored by KU's Natural History Museum, the Land Institute in Salina and the Kansas Rural Center in Whiting.
Kathryn Morton, marketing and communications coordinator at the Natural History Museum, said the event, the first of its kind in Lawrence, had come about when some great minds worked together.
Morton said that Waters and the board of directors of the Land Institute wanted to do a benefit for
the institute. The museum already had secured a photographic exhibit on worldwide farming practices by Michael Ableman, an organic farmer and community activist.
The organizers decided to combine the benefit and exhibit into a daylong event which would culminate with a gala Saturday night at the Adams Alumni Center followed by a multimedia presentation at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. Proceeds from the $75-per-ticket gala, which is
sold out, will benefit the sponsors.
Morton said the multimedia program in Woodruff Auditorium would be about remote farming cultures and practices, modern farming and personal roles in taking care of the earth.
"I would like to encourage the University community to come to the multimedia presentation," Morton said. "It concerns all of us. The choices we make on a daily basis really affect the health of our world."
